Ingredients

 * 1 lb. silken tofu, drained
 * ½ cup chocolate soymilk

 * 2 tbsp seedless raspberry preserves
 * 1 pint raspberries or sliced strawberries for garnish

Directions

 * 1) Preheat oven to 300°F.
 * 2) Butter a 9-inch spring-form pan, and line bottom with parchment paper. Butter paper.
 * 3) Melt chocolate in a small heavy saucepan over very low heat.
 * 4) Stir until smooth, remove from heat and set aside.
 * 5) Combine melted chocolate, tofu, chocolate soymilk, whole egg, brown sugar, cocoa, flour, vanilla and coffee granules in a blender or food processor.
